GW Closing All Retail & Mail Order Operations Globally

Space Marine kneeling wal horGames Workshop emailed their subscribers this morning with a tough, but necessary announcement. They are shutting down all sites until AT LEAST mid-April to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. 

Here’s the email to check out yourself:

For the rest of us at home, we hope you’ve got enough kits and hobby materials to help pass the time while we wait this worldwide pandemic out. The silver lining to GW shutting all of their sites down is that as of right now they’ll still be dropping news and announcements every day on Warhammer Community and Warhammer TV (YouTube/Twitch).

Remember, we’ve got part one of that big Adepticon preview this Saturday as well.

Here is the latest word from GW on when the previews will hit and where.
